St. Paul singer Nicholas David Mrozinski channeled late soul singer Barry White during the top 20 playoff round during NBC's "The Voice" Wednesday night -- and won the show's coaches over in the process, the Pioneer Press reported.

Mrozinski, who goes by Nicholas David on the show, sang White's classic hit, "You're the First, the Last, My Everything."

Coach Adam Levine explained to the crowd members too young to remember White that the soul great made "baby making music."

"I want to make a baby now because I heard that song and that's the test. If I want to make a baby after listening to Barry White, you did a great job," Levine told Mrozinski.
